  1. NFL Thread

    Ya know I was one of those who was bemoaning the ridiculous offensive turn the NFL has taken in recent years, especially this year. I really like defensive football when done right, but that will go down as one of, if not the worst Super Bowl ever. Almost all of that goes down on the Rams, Goff...
  2. Tennis 2017

    Federer isn't going to get any flack for not playing Paris like Murray did at the US Open because the situations are entirely different. Federer has just finished winning Basel and his decision to play in Paris was almost certainly depending on how deep he went. He could only make that decision...
  3. Tennis 2017

    Oh come on, it's Federer in Basel, about as safe a bet for a one sided crowd, hardly a 'disgrace'. Del Potro certainly didn't mind having the crowd at the US Open doing the same for him. Murray at Wimbeldon, Rafa in Madrid, it happens everywhere. (Except Djokovic, no one likes him tbf.)
  4. Liverpool vs Manchester United

    What am I missing from that Lovren incident? Doesn't look like he made any real contact with his head which he immediately began clutching? At worst he hit his back but it was completely accidental, and jesus could Neville give Lukaku a break, shitting on him all game ffs.
  5. Liverpool vs Manchester United

    Neville a tad harsh on Lukaku saying he needs to sharpen up, guy is totally isolated up front, we look like a team of scared chicken shits against a very beatable Pool side.
  6. Manchester United officials looking at plans to expand Old Trafford capacity to 88,000 | Scrapped?

    None of these clubs were in the situation United are in. City, Arsenal, Spurs and Chelsea all had or have smaller stadiums limited by their location(ie. surrounded by housing or roads) meaning they had no room to expand. For all these clubs (except City who were just given an already built...
  7. Mitten: Manchester United MUST put money back into Old Trafford

    I honestly couldn't give a shite how shiny, new or aesthetically pleasing Old Trafford looks or how many flippin corporate boxes there are. I was always annoyed how happy so many United fans were to do away with things like naming rights to Old Trafford just for some extra money. But now...
  8. The worst 20 seconds of football ever played?

    Forget those 20 second clips, at least something within the realms of excitement happened, I nominate the entirety of our 0-0 draw with West Ham at home under Vangle, absolute putrid nothingness, a football match so dour and bereft of anything that it made self harming with a wooden cooking...
  9. Paul Parker: 'Wayne Rooney is overweight and slow.'

    I understand the analogy, even in a weird relation to Rooney, in Ireland we had the cancerous Fianna Fail in power for 14 years, even mentioning the name will get me rabidly ranting, anything and everything associated with them was poisonous to the country's well-being. But I don't look at...
  10. Paul Parker: 'Wayne Rooney is overweight and slow.'

    I'm sure I'll regret even attempting to get involved in this 'debate', though I found it strange that someone found the need to bump this thread in spite of the fact there already exists a specific performance thread for Rooney to vent whatever frustrations one has, but whatever, at least it...
  11. Has Ronaldo just settled current generation's GOAT debate?

    Don't really care about this 'debate' but I always laugh at how some people go on about Ronaldo 'having an advantage' by winning with both us and Madrid and how Messi has 'played it safe' by staying at Barca. For one, you'd swear he was playing with absolute scrubs when he won trophies with...
  12. Final: Portugal vs France

    Delighted for France, Greizmanns celebrations alone made me retch and cheer for not-team Ronaldo.
